Whoopi Goldberg called out Donald Trump’s hypocrisy on Monday’s live episode of “The View,” just hours after the president’s wild post on the stabbing deaths of director Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele Reiner.
The host, who starred in Reiner’s 1996 film “Ghosts of Mississippi,” paid tribute to the late director, calling him an “amazing friend” and remarking on his years of activism before addressing the president’s off-the-rails message.
“I don’t understand the man in that White House because he talks so much about Charlie Kirk and caring,” said Goldberg, referring to Trump and the GOP’s criticism of those who made light of the right-wing activist’s assassination.
“And suddenly, this is what he puts out. Have you no shame? No shame at all? This is — Can you get any lower? I don’t think so.”
In a post to his Truth Social platform, Trump suggested Reiner and his wife were murdered because of the director’s “Trump Derangement Syndrome,” a message that drew intense criticism from several Republicans as well as the president’s supporters.
Trump has since doubled down on his post, telling reporters that he wasn’t a fan of the “deranged” director “in any way, shape or form” due to Reiner’s past criticism of him.
Goldberg questioned what Trump had to say about “what’s happened around the world” after two deadly mass shootings over the weekend.
“Where is our voice as Americans? Somebody’s got to speak up for us. Our hearts are breaking through all of this — through Rob, through what’s happened at Bondi Beach, what happened at Brown [University],” she stressed.
“And you don’t have the time to say as Americans, we hate what’s happening. You ain’t my president, man!”
After a commercial break, she issued a correction. On Sunday, Trump offered his “deepest regards and respects” to the victims of the attack on a Hanukkah celebration in Australia as well as victims of the Brown University shooting.
“Not what I would like to have heard from you but you did do it so, there you go,” she said of Trump.
